How to Lock Chapters

Heyo,

I currently have more than a few branches on my stories, and for dumb reasons, I keep adding more branches rather than focusing on what I already have. My question is, is there a way for me to lock chapters so that no new branches can be added? I looked on the CHYOA Guide but I didn't see any way of doing that. If anyone can just point me in the right direction, that would be great.
 
As of now, there is no such feature.

And if there was such a feature, you might be able to reverse such a decision, so it doesn't sound very useful for that purpose.
 
The classic "I know the rules, but unfortunately I also know who made the rules (me) and I know that that guy is full of shit" problem.

If you really worry about spoiling the story by adding unnecessary stuff like that, you either need to actually obey your own limits, or give the editor rights to someone else who will enforce them over you.
 
You could try writing a natural ending. It's a bit hard to go "and then the fire nation attacked!" if you've just finished writing a happily-ever-after. It doesn't even have to be long, just a few hundred words.

(It's also good practice, because writing endings is hard.)
